Air Academy High School Reviews
Rating 3.99 out of 5 377 reviews
Air Academy High school has an academically rigorous environment with nurturing and caring faculty. I especially remember how I was understood and supported by my teachers in a difficult time of my life.
The classes at Air Academy are designed to academically rigorous and foster problem solving and people skills, which are essential for college readiness. Air Academy is well known for it STEM programs and state of the art classrooms and lab technologies, however, it also provides a comprehensive Art and Humanities programs.
what really stands out to me is the support I received from my science teacher during a time when my best friend passed away. My teachers went above and beyond to provide me with academic support and connected me with resources to help me cope. They recognized the challenges I was facing and took the time to guide me through the material and made sure that I graduated. The teachers here genuinely care about the wellbeing of their students.

Overall, it's a great school and I've had a good experience. It has its problems just like all other high schools -- tons of smoking and drug use in the bathrooms - most kids who don't want to do that will hold it until they get home. But I know its like that everywhere.
Also, I wish more teachers would actually teach the lesson instead of assigning a video to watch and everything is self-taught.

LOVE IT SO MUCH!! One of the best things about air academy is the community. Everyone is connected and included and all the teachers are understanding and great at their jobs. One really cool thing is Kadet Coffee, a coffee shop run by students where you can go during free time. There are so many cool drinks and its a lot of fun to get an opportunity to work there. School sports at Air Academy are also an amazing thing. The sense of belonging is incredible. At Air Academy school spirit is a really big deal. Almost everybody dresses up according to theme and on color day you definitely know which grade a person goes to because of all the color everywhere. I love Air Academy and am so glad I get to go to high school there.
